    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 1, 2022
     | 2,072 views

    In this sermon, I want to complete the preaching on the Fruit of the Spirit.

    The last fruit that we are going to deal with is the fruit of Temperance. When I think of the fruit of Temperance, I think of a thermostat. Illus: You know what a thermostat does! It keeps the temperature in our homes under control. This is what the fruit of Temperance does in our life. It keeps ...read more

    Fruit Of The Spirit # 2b

     | 997 views

    The Lord desires that His people take Him seriously, but that they not take themselves too seriously.

    He wants them to wipe off their grim looks, put smiles on their faces, and let laughter flow from their lips. As we learned in the previous sermon: • The world can give us happiness because happiness comes from WITHOUT. • Only God can give us JOY because joy comes from WITHIN. When the lost world ...read more

    What Is Going On In The Church? The Second Coming Of Jesus!

    Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Apr 1, 2022
     | 2,195 views

    Let us reason together and search the scriptures about the signs of the second coming of Jesus Christ that are occuring in the church. Will we evaluate our attitudes? Are we passively compromising our worship?

    WHAT IS GOING ON IN THE CHURCH? LAST DAYS! By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com (This is a several part lesson. Use wisdom) LAST DAYS, THAT DAY, THE DAY OF OUR LORD, CLOSING OF TIME… IF I GO, I WILL COME AGAIN… JESUS PROMISED THE CHURCH AS HE WAS PREPARING TO LEAVE: I WILL COME ...read more

    No Man Careth…

     | 1,202 views

    One thing that make many of our lives miserable at time is the LACK OF COMPASSION of those that surround our lives.

    ? Children have no compassion for their parents ? Employer have no compassion for their employees. ? Neighbors have no compassion for their neighbor. The parable of THE LOST SHEEP reveals the COMPASSION OF CHRIST more than any other of Jesus’ parables. It is comforting to know that our Lord ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 7,665 views

    "Holding on to our Past" is something that can inhibit not only our relationships, our outlook on life, but also our sense of identity and spiritual growth in Jesus.

    If you are not familiar with an Anglican Service there are 4 readings prior to the Sermon. The assigned readings for this day were: Isaiah 43:16-21; Psalm 126; Philippians 3:7-16 and Luke 20:9-19. I will be Drawing from our New Testament reading in Philippians this morning.

    Work Six Rest One! (Labor Day)

     | 2,046 views

    We all have different ideas about what would be the ideal life, and we all strive to acquire it. We will never have the ideal life until we get to heaven.

    Some say that heaven will not be heaven for some people. Illus: That reminds me of the story one of the fellows in church told me. He told me that Bill, Ron, and Jack all died and went to heaven. When they got there, they discovered the most beautiful golf course they had ever seen. St. Peter ...read more

    The Great Need For Compassion!

     | 2,051 views

    Today I want to preach on something that some seem to think is not that important….BUT IT IS! It affects our life everyday.

    I want to preach to you about compassion. We miss compassion when we do not have it and we admire it when we see it. Illus: A pastor wrote, "I was in Time’s Square, in New York, during rush hour. Thousands of people were thronging and pushing at the corner, ready to cross at the ...read more

    There are days in our life that stand out above others and we will never forget those days as long as we live.

    • We can remember the day we got married In all fairness, some of us men do forget our anniversary, which is not a good thing to do! Illus: One woman who knew her husband who could not remember what day they got married and as a result often forgot their anniversary, decided she would play a ...read more

    Biblical Fellowship (A Communion Sermon)

     | 2,562 views

    Someone said, “Fellowship is like fellows in a ship!” Then they said, “The only thing wrong with fellowship is that there are not enough fellows in the ship.”

    As we read through the New Testament, we can see that FELLOWSHIP is essential to God’s church. For a church to be a strong church, FELLOWSHIP IS ESSENTIAL. Let me give you an example how important it is. Illus: Romanian orphans have a medical condition that many of them suffer from. In ...read more

    The Stairway To Happiness

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 8, 2022
     | 2,722 views

    There should be no doubt in anyone’s mind that God loves us and wants to bless us. The Book of Psalms is all about how this wonderful God that loves us wants to bless us.

    God does not wait until chapter two before He tells us how we can receive a blessing. He starts off in chapter one, verse one. The word translated, “Blessed,” is from the Hebrew word, “aishair” which simply means: “HAPPINESS.” Many people have different ideas on how to find happiness in this ...read more

    Spiritual Veterans

     | 2,222 views

    We live in a nation where respect and honor are not top priorities. For example, respect for the elderly is something today that is missing in our society.

    . We see a lot of rudeness, and much of it is directed toward the elderly. Illus: Did you hear about the grandmother that was going to ride a bus downtown with her grandson? She got on the bus, and the bus driver was very rude to her. As she got on the bus with her grandchild, the bus driver ...read more

     | 1,530 views

    A pastor announced that the next week he would be preaching on the ninth commandment, “Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.”

    He requested that the congregation go home and read Mark, chapter seventeen before the next Sunday. When next Sunday came, before he started preaching, he asked, “How many of you read Mark, chapter seventeen this week?” About half of the congregation raised their hands to indicate they had. Then ...read more

    Fifth Commandment (5 Of 12)

     | 1,732 views

    Again I want to remind you that God has just delivered the children of Israel from Egyptian bondage. They could not deliver themselves, but God, by His marvelous grace delivered them.

    Now, as a new nation was beginning to be established, God gave these laws to them so they would know how to govern themselves. Why? Because a country cannot exist without regulations and laws. Some people today feel these laws are now archaic. Illus:Those who feel that we are past the age ...read more

    Fourth Commandment (4 Of 12)

    In Romans 12:2 we read, And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

    It seems that one of the easiest things in this world to do is follow the crowd and let others do our thinking for us. The lost world is convinced we are so dumb we can not think for ourselves. For example, we cannot even listen to the president of the United States address this nation on ...read more
